How many carbs for pre diabetic per day?
I just found out I'm pre-diabetic and the doctor advised me to control my diet. I want to know how many carbs I should limit myself to per day to prevent full-blown diabetes.

I used a popular health tracker app to log my food when I was prediabetic. Aiming for around 100 to 120 grams of carbs daily really helped me reverse it. The app makes it so easy to see where hidden sugars are coming from, highly recommend trying one!

Please don't take prediabetes lightly like I did, thinking it is not full diabetes yet. I ignored it and now I have to take daily medicines. Go get a proper HbA1c test and let a doctor tell you your exact carb limit rather than guessing on your own.

In my experience, reversing prediabetes is highly achievable with daily pranayama and a clean diet. Try keeping your carbohydrates around 100-120 grams daily, and focus on fresh, home-cooked satvik meals. A calm mind and gentle daily yoga will help your insulin sensitivity immensely.

My mother always tells me to eat parboiled rice in small quantities to manage sugar, but for prediabetes, I trust my doctor's advice. He recommended keeping my daily carbs to around 130 grams and adding more fiber. Please consult your physician to get the right target for your body.

For prediabetes, keeping carbs around 100-120g works really well, especially if you pair it with some regular strength training. More muscle mass means better glucose disposal. Keep it clean, eat your protein, and stay consistent with your movement.
